环境发展为研究人员、研究生、决策者和管理人员提供面向未来、积极主动、权威的信息和学习来源，并在基础研究和管理及政策实践应用之间架起桥梁。它促进传统的环境科学知识与决策者和其他利益相关者之间的经验知识的交流和耦合，并将自然科学与社会和行为科学联系起来。环境发展包括和促进非西方世界的科学工作，并加强发达国家和发展中国家之间的合作。此外，它将环境研究与更广泛的经济和社会文化发展问题联系起来，旨在缩短研究和出版之间的延误，同时确保彻底的同行审查。环境发展也为跨国交流、讨论和全球行动创造了一个论坛。环境发展向广泛的学科和作者开放。该杂志特别欢迎年轻一代研究人员的贡献，以及拓展环境科学前沿、指出新方向和创新答案的论文。所有有关环境发展的意见书，均按质素、创意、精确度、主题和见解的重要性、清晰的阐述等一般准则进行评审，务求符合《环境发展期刊》的宗旨和范畴。

Environmental Development provides a future oriented, pro-active, authoritative source of information and learning for researchers, postgraduate students, policymakers, and managers, and bridges the gap between fundamental research and the application in management and policy practices. It stimulates the exchange and coupling of traditional scientific knowledge on the environment, with the experiential knowledge among decision makers and other stakeholders and also connects natural sciences and social and behavioral sciences. Environmental Development includes and promotes scientific work from the non-western world, and also strengthens the collaboration between the developed and developing world. Further it links environmental research to broader issues of economic and social-cultural developments, and is intended to shorten the delays between research and publication, while ensuring thorough peer review. Environmental Development also creates a forum for transnational communication, discussion and global action.Environmental Development is open to a broad range of disciplines and authors. The journal welcomes, in particular, contributions from a younger generation of researchers, and papers expanding the frontiers of environmental sciences, pointing at new directions and innovative answers.All submissions to Environmental Development are reviewed using the general criteria of quality, originality, precision, importance of topic and insights, clarity of exposition, which are in keeping with the journal's aims and scope.
